Re: Am I the only one...

Yes, you must be the only one Remo:) I know for sure that I haven't seen them. The last movie I saw in the theatre that was even remotely horror related was RESIDENT EVIL: AFTERLIFE. There just hasn't been much out there lately that I cared to see. I feel like I could personally skip stuff like CASE...

Re: Resident Evil--Afterlife

HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME CHUCK! IN SHAME! We're not going to start arguing now are we Kim? :devildoll But seriously, I had a good time with this movie and actually enjoyed it a hell of a lot more than SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD (as much as it saddens me to say). It delivered what I expected so that's all ...

George Romero's SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD

So nobody else on here has seen this yet?!? I finally saw it yesterday and have to say I was really let down by it. IMO this is easily the worst of Romero's "dead" series and actually made me like DIARY OF THE DEAD a lot more (which I honestly didn't like as much as most people did). I fou...

Re: The Runaways

Finally caught up to this one yesterday via rental. This one would up only getting a limited release and didn't even open up near me. I wasn't expecting a whole lot, but THE RUNAWAYS really isn't too bad of a movie. The believable performances are really what make this one worth seeing. Kristen Stew...

Re: Resident Evil--Afterlife

Well I caught this the other day and actually enjoyed it a little more than Remo probably did. Sure it was nothing original and the MATRIX stuff was a little embarassing, but the 3-D effects were awesome and there was plenty of action to keep me entertained. I must admit that I liked this one a litt...

Re: Resident Evil--Afterlife

Nice review Remo. I've never kept up with the series since the first movie, but I was looking forward to this one just for the 3-D and the awesome trailer. It's nice to hear that it's real 3-D this time and not just another conversion job. I'll probably go check it out later this week. Quick questio...

Re: MACHETE

Caught this at a matinee yesterday and enjoyed every minutes of it. MACHETE was everything I hoped to be and more. The cast, action scenes, and splatter were all top-notch. I really didn't have that much of a problem with Jessica Alba (even if she did play her role a little stiff). But I was really ...

Re: "Ketchup"--INCEPTION, SCOTT PILGRIM, PIRANHA 3-D

I was one of those "guys" who went to see THE EXPENDABLES instead of SCOTT PILGRIM, but judging from the previews it might be worth checking out as a rental for me. There are just too many other films coming out I want to see that I can't possibly see everything on the big screen. INCEPTIO...

Finally caught up with this one at a matinee over the weekend, but wound up seeing it in 2-D instead (and agree with Remo that it plays just as good without the 3-D). I loved the first two movies (as well as all the other Pixar films) and this one was no exception. It's great to see that the Pixar m...

Man I really want to see this one since I've been hearing nothing but positive things about it, but I dread having to sit through a 3-hour movie. Besides I still have a few other movies to catch up on first. Hopefully I'll get to see it soon.

I don't think anyone would blame you for giving up on TWILIGHT Remo. I've enjoyed reading your reviews over the years and they've definitely shaped my decisions when it comes to seeing movies.

Really that bad, Remo? I was looking forward to this one and was hoping it would deliver with Rodriguez being involved (I was one of the few people on here that actually didn't mind THE FACULTY). I got some "movie cash" towards this when I picked up the new PREDATOR Blu-Ray so at least it ...

Iron man 2

Saw this in IMAX the other day and thought it was awesome. I thought it was every bit as good as the original film plus had a better story. Robert Downey Jr. puts in another great performance and Don Cheadle also makes a great replacement for Terrence Howard. We get to see more of Samuel L. Jackson ...

no desire to see this :) You wouldn't be missing much Kim. I went into this expecting to absolutely hate it and was ready to tear into Jackie Earle Haley.

Thanks Remo! I never saw the original COTT and had no real interest in this remake, but reading your review made me think otherwise. So I took this in at a matinee (in 2-D) the other day and had a blast. I agree with your point on Sam Worthington, but I even thought he was better here than in AVATAR...
